This pattern helps all the beautiful mini skeins you’ve collected shine. This shawl is knit on the bias with easy-to-memorize stitches, making for an approachable wrap. The stitch pattern emulates the constellation after which the pattern is named with subtle W-shaped eyelets.

In this sample, each 20-gram mini skein section is about 4” (10cm) of rows. Adjust the number of mini skeins for your ideal length. Knit Cassiopeia with eight skeins for Hanukkah, 24 for the Advent season, seven for a one-week shawl challenge - or just use this pattern with leftover scraps of various amounts for a fun, vibrant wrap. Or even use full skeins that have been waiting for just the right project. Your creativity is your guide for the color combinations – Do a fade or rainbow or monochromatic subtle shift.
